When the bulk of your power needs are supposed to come from sunshine and breezes, get ready for a lot of disappointment. Total collapses in wind and solar output routinely lead to large-scale, controlled blackouts - euphemistically known as ‘demand management’. Where smart meters are in play, the grid manager helpfully does it for you; … Continue reading Renewables Transition: ‘Demand Management’ Means Accepting Bribes to Suffer Blackouts

Power Grab: Struggling British Households Forced to Install Pre-Paid Smart Meters
With power prices soaring out of control, it’s little wonder that thousands of British families can’t afford electricity. Every time Britain is hit with a bout of calm weather, wholesale power prices go through the roof. In response to soaring wholesale power prices, the retail price cap that kept a lid on power bills over … Continue reading Power Grab: Struggling British Households Forced to Install Pre-Paid Smart Meters
RE-Treat: Europe’s Repeated Wind & Solar Failures Force Renewable Energy Reversal
Germany and Britain are so heavily dependent on wind and solar, that gloomy, windless weather now presents an existential threat. The Germans have even coined a word for it: ‘dunkelflaute’. If mass blackouts during freezing winter weather weren’t a threat to millions of lives, it would almost be comical. What’s occurred is the perfect example … Continue reading RE-Treat: Europe’s Repeated Wind & Solar Failures Force Renewable Energy Reversal
Frozen Wind Turbines & Solar Panels Leave Thousands of Americans Freezing In The Dark
Far from threatening human existence, coal and gas have, once again, literally saved thousands of American lives. A bout of what is now known as ‘extreme weather’ demonstrates how extremely stupid it is to rely upon sunshine and breezes for power. During December’s Big Freeze, millions of America’s solar panels were carpeted in snow and … Continue reading Frozen Wind Turbines & Solar Panels Leave Thousands of Americans Freezing In The Dark
Planned Failure: Wind Power Obsession Leaves Britain’s Power Supply On Brink Of Collapse
You know policymakers have lost the plot when they start waxing lyrical about battery storage and ‘green’ hydrogen; neither of which exist at any scale; neither of which are even vaguely economic, even with massive taxpayer-funded subsidies to prop them up. English dictionary doyen, Samuel Johnson reckoned that patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels, … Continue reading Planned Failure: Wind Power Obsession Leaves Britain’s Power Supply On Brink Of Collapse
Ever Reliable: Nuclear & Coal-Fired Power Provide Germany’s Only Energy Salvation
Seems like only yesterday that Germany’s grand wind and solar transition was the talk of the town. Dubbed the “Energiewende”, it was meant to spell an inevitable end to nuclear and coal-fired power, which would soon be replaced by nothing other than forests of wind turbines and seas of solar panels. Well, that was what … Continue reading Ever Reliable: Nuclear & Coal-Fired Power Provide Germany’s Only Energy Salvation
Wind Power Collapses During Calm Weather Means Soaring Power Prices & Power Rationing
The British like to ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’, but panic sets in when calm weather hits and wind power output hits the floor. What follows is another round of opportunistic price gouging by the owners of Britain’s gas-fired power plants, and remaining coal-fired plants, able to charge ludicrous amounts for electricity simply because they’re … Continue reading Wind Power Collapses During Calm Weather Means Soaring Power Prices & Power Rationing
Reliable & Affordable Energy Is Life Itself: Why Wind & Solar Are Making Us All Worse Off
Deprive a well-fed Westerner of energy for more than a few hours and you’ll get their attention. The reliable and affordable power supplies that we’ve taken for granted were built up over a century. A raft of suicidal energy policies introduced in the last 20 years will have them destroyed before this decade is out. … Continue reading Reliable & Affordable Energy Is Life Itself: Why Wind & Solar Are Making Us All Worse Off
Not So Cheap: You’re Paying Colossal Cost Of Climate Cult’s Wind & Solar Obsession
Their self-inflated 'virtue' has a price, and you’re paying it, every red cent of it. That last jaw-dropping power bill has their fingerprints all over it. So do the occasions when thousands are left sitting freezing or boiling in the dark; when cash-strapped businesses are forced to sack staff to cut their overheads so they … Continue reading Not So Cheap: You’re Paying Colossal Cost Of Climate Cult’s Wind & Solar Obsession
UK’s Power Consumers Pay Staggering Price For Wind Power That’s Never Delivered
Obscene is one way to describe the wind power debacle playing out in Britain; power prices are punitive, in calm weather power rationing is normal. And with a bitter winter looming, the worst is yet to come. That untold £billions have already been squandered on subsidies directed to chaotically intermittent wind and solar is bad … Continue reading UK’s Power Consumers Pay Staggering Price For Wind Power That’s Never Delivered
